Baby names?

[Anne Sayne]

3 days ago, God brought a new, healthy baby boy into our family! I know when I introduced myself, I said it would be 3 months, but that's what the doctor told me. George decided that we would no longer visit doctors unless they are True Christians™ Luckily, he was VERY painful coming out, so I know that I am being the kind of wife/mother that Jesus called me to be (Genesis 3:16) We are very blessed to have this new child and soldier of Christ. We have one problem, however, and that is the name we will give him. Our eldest daughter, Annabeth, is named after me (my full name is Annabelle) George Jr is named after my husband, and Sarah is named after George's mother. George has no other family members to name a child after, besides his father Mike whom we were going to name the baby after, but he recently made the AWFUL descision of becoming a joo and we BOTH know that we will NOT be naming our Christian child after an unsaved mormon. All of my relatives are metho-dick, so we won't be using any of their names. All I ask for is that you say a few good name ideas, and names I should avoid. God bless!

Re: Baby names?

Mrs Sayne,

As an avid reader of the Bible, I was immediately reminded of a few wonderful names for baby boys with a solid Biblical background. I present them here in my own order of preference:

1. Dodo (one of Issachar's men, there was also one who was an Ahohite )

Judges 10:1
And after Abimelech there arose to defend Israel Tola the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar; and he dwelt in Shamir in mount Ephraim.

2. Mash, one of the sons of Aram

Genesis 10:23
And the children of Aram; Uz, and Hul, and Gether, and Mash.

3. Heman (for those children who are not the sharpest tools in the shed)

1 Kings 4:31
For he was wiser than all men; than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Chalcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol: and his fame was in all nations round about.

4. Mahershalalhashbaz (be quick before Hamites adopt this name)

Isaiah 8:3
And I went unto the prophetess; and she conceived, and bare a son. Then said the LORD to me, Call his name Mahershalalhashbaz.

It was a pleasure to help you!


Yours in Christ,

Elmer

Mazel tov, Annelah!


Instead of going for something the kid might sue you for later, why now something easy and cool, like "Levi," "Samson," "Job", or even Michael?


Berman is popular in my family. It means "Bear man" in Yiddish, which is a mitzvah that he grows up strong and fearless - and maybe delightfully hairy! Ansel (or, 'nobleman's father") is not as popular these days but is on a comeback in certain neighborhoods of NYC.


I hope the sheygets is happy, healthy, and full of chutzpah! If you'd like, I can hook you up with a Jewish astrologer in NY City to give you a reading for your new bundle.


A blessing on your head!


Blessings on his head.

Thank you very much, Elmer! These are some wonderful names!

George and I love Mahershalalhashbaz, but if we do give him that name, we will call him Maher for short. My weak female tongue cannot pronounce it very well because of 1 Timothy 2:11

Re: Baby names?

Dear, another easy name is James, and that's perfectly respectable. After all, we read the King James Bible, so every time he hears his name, he will be reminded of The Lord whose praise should ever be in our mouths (Psalm 34:1). That's also a very American name, and if you don't like any of the names given, the 11 disciples that were loyal to Jesus are also respectable names.

Re: Baby names?

As neither of your first children has a True Christian(tm) name taken from the King James Version (1611) you might as well call him D'Wayne, for all the difference it will make.

Hear, Hear, Sister.


There are many fine names to be found for offspring within the pages of the Bible. Perhaps the Saynes could leaf through its pages together and pray privately on the subject.


I, for one, wish them well and pray that all their children have the opportunity to grow up in a country guided by Biblical Values where Christ is Glorified in private and public venues. This may happen if Christians follow their duty and vote for Donald Trump whom God has clearly chosen to become President.


Deterministically Yours,

I pray the same! It would be terrible if something happened to Mr. Sayne accidentally on his way to work next Tuesday.


What a prayerful and thoughtful person you are, Sister Handmaiden. You know you're my one and only!

Re: Baby names?

As a participant in the Hillary campaign I have my finger on the pulse of America and I am privy to many of the latest names for babies. A few of the names I have heard lately for boy babies are Fidel Hugo Tupac and Bernie.

Ahem, your presence in this Prayer Shack for Women is very disconcerting. Please consider absenting yourself to go buzz around Hillary who has obviously not read the Bible and doesn't know her proper place as a woman. Really, would she even know why we have a prayer shack?


Moreover, your list of names is preposterous. We are gathered here to Glorify God by proclaiming His Word. If you insist on trying to be amusing, you need to "put your finger" on something in the Bible that could be construed as humorous.


Daringly Yours,

Re: Baby names?

George finally made a desicion (with help from Jesus of course)
And God's new Christian Soldier is named........Mahershalahashbaz! George and I made the desicion to call him Maher for short (see above)
Thanks to Elmer G. White for the wonderful name!

Re: Baby names?

Eww!...

Like Bill Maher, that God-mocking atheist who will be struck by lightning any day now for all of his God-mocking activities?

Eww!...

[Anne Sayne]

Re: Baby names?

Hmm....never heard of Bill Maher. Should I inform George? We already gave the baby his full name, but Maher was just going to be a nickname so we can always change that.

Re: Baby names?

I am sorry to "bump" this very unremarkable thread, but what do True Christian™ ladies and gentlemen think of the names given by the British prince and his dubious wife to their** new son?

I don't recall seeing either Archie or Harrison mentioned in the KJV (1611), do you? My dear maternal grandfather remembers a comic book from his childhood called Archie. If "Ms" Markle was reading boys' comic books that far back, the rumors are probably true. Is Archie even a real name, or is it like Spiderman? As for Harrison, they might as well have called him Indiana!

By the way, has anyone any suggestions for my impending baby/babies, due either at the end of next month or in July or maybe the beginning of August - math is not my strong point, but it doesn't matter as God will decide. We are praying for another son, or possibly two if we are blessed with a fourth set of boy twins. So far, God has only decided otherwise once, and I thank Him for that kindness every day as Hannah (10) is a useful help meet and will make an excellent wife one day.

** if indeed it is theirs - rumor suggests otherwise.

Thank you, dear Sister Joanna, for bringing this to our attention. I had similar thoughts after I had read of the names of the baby, particularly Archie. Archie?!! What type of name is that for a so-called prince? Why not Jughead? He's the one who is wearing the crown! A blessed day to you, dear Sister. Sincerely, Isabella W.
